It seems the punishments were not severe though... Always stay vigilant during inspections. I tuck small valuables in the back compartment of my carryon where it is difficult to access quickly. Watch never comes off.

The age-old problem of who's watching the watchers.

I fly a lot and that is something I fear. I always check before I leave TSA

Ugh, who wants to go in on a Gulfstream so we don't have to do TSA?!

In all seriousness, I've flown https://www.jsx.com/home/search before & there's no TSA. The same kind of semi-private charter-ish may exist in your neck of the woods, too. It's surprisingly affordable.

I’m always vigilant as well, I don’t even travel these days with high end piece. It’s scary out there.

Just keep your eyes on your watch and your surroundings. I've traveled the world with a Rolex on my wrist.

I see day-drinking in Canada is even more widespread than I've heard.
